[0035] A positioning device 202 is a detachable T-BOX device, including a main unit module 10 and an antenna module 20. The main unit module 10 is provided with a connecting line. One of the main unit module 10 and the antenna module 20 is provided with a plug-in groove, and the other is provided with a plug-in protrusion. The outer wall of the plug-in protrusion is provided with a first guide position 301 and a first locking position 401. The inner wall of the plug-in groove is provided with a second guide position 302 and a second locking position 402. The first guide position 301 and the second guide position 302 are connected by a concave-convex fit. The first locking position 401 and the second locking position 402 are detachably connected to each other. The design makes the connection between the antenna module 20 and the main unit module 10 more intuitive and convenient. The antenna module 20 can be quickly and accurately installed by simply inserting it into the main unit module 10 along the concave-convex fit direction of the guide position and the locking position. There is no need for complicated alignment and fixing operations, which greatly reduces the installation difficulty.

[0036] The mutual cooperation between the first guide position 301 and the second guide position 302, and the first latching position 401 and the second latching position 402, allows the antenna module 20 to be detachably connected to the main unit module 10 radially along the connecting line through the mutual cooperation of the insertion groove and the insertion protrusion. Compared with the traditional installation method of installing the antenna module 20 inside the main unit module 10, this installation method is more intuitive and simplifies the installation process. Workers do not need to perform complex operations in the limited space inside the main unit module 10, thereby reducing production costs and assembly difficulty.

[0037] In this embodiment, the host module 10 is provided with a plug-in groove, and the antenna module 20 is provided with a plug-in protrusion. The first guide position 301 is a guide groove 501, and the second guide position 302 is a guide rib 502 adapted to the guide groove 501. Furthermore, the end of the guide groove 501 facing the guide rib 502 is provided with a first guide surface 801, and the end of the guide rib 502 facing the antenna module 20 is provided with a second guide surface 802 that can abut against the first guide surface 801. When the antenna module 20 is connected to the host module 10 along the radial direction of the connection line of the host module 10, the first guide surface 801 abuts against the second guide surface 802, ensuring that the antenna module 20 can be accurately aligned to the designated position during installation, which is convenient, quick, and beneficial to the daily maintenance and management of the equipment.

[0038] Specifically, the first guide position 301 is provided on the front outer surface, left outer surface and right outer surface of the antenna module 20; the second guide position 302 is provided on the front inner side, left inner side and right inner side of the main module 10.
